Chapter 807 Ice Law
"He's not the Prince," Chi Tianai shook her head.
"What?" Tian Jiuyou exploded like a lit bomb, jumping up immediately. "That bastard Tianshu dares to look down upon my Ai. I'll go and kill all his dogs and granddogs, stopping his lineage forever."
"Master You, don't be hasty. Although the Heavenly Emperor's chosen partner for me is not the Prince, I think that man's talents and abilities are above those of the Princes," Chi Tianai hurriedly said.
"Stronger than the Prince? Well, that's acceptable," Tian Jiuyou's rage slightly subsided.
"But there's one problem. That man likely already has a woman he is close to," Chi Tianai stated.
"Is this what's bothering you?" After hearing it, Tian Jiuyou couldn't help but laugh.
"Master You, why are you laughing? This is a serious issue," Chi Tianai retorted, displeased.
Tian Jiuyou asked, "Let me ask you one thing. Do you yourself want to marry this man?"
"It's not a matter of wanting. He already has a woman. How can I share a man with another woman?" Chi Tianai replied anxiously.
"Of course, you can't. That's why I asked if you want to marry that man. If you don't want to, then let it be. But if you do, it's simple — I'll just kill his woman. Then he won't have another woman, and he can be completely devoted to you," Tian Jiuyou stated.
"Master You ... I'm being serious," Chi Tianai said coquettishly. "If he's the type who would abandon his family and cling to the powerful, how could I want such a man? If he can betray his own woman now, he could betray me in the future."
"That's simple too. I'll just kill him, then he can't betray anyone," Tian Jiuyou said laughing heartily.
"The man has done no wrong to me, and it's not his choice to marry me. Besides, he hasn't abandoned his family yet. Killing him now would be such a grave injustice," Chi Tianai couldn't help but laugh.
"What do you think then? You have Master You backing you up, no need to fear anything," Tian Jiuyou said, thumping his chest. Your next read is at My Virtual Library Empire
"Master You, you've been really good to me," Chi Tianai said, touched.
Although Tian Jiuyou didn't provide any practical advice, Chi Tianai didn't really need anyone else's opinion; she just needed someone to share her current feelings.
Tian Jiuyou wholeheartedly took her side, and although his suggestions seemed insane and meaningless, for Chi Tianai, perhaps these meaningless words were exactly what she needed.
"You just need to follow your heart, and leave the rest to me," Tian Jiuyou changed his tone and added, "If that young scoundrel Chi Wuxin dares to force you to marry, tell me, and I'll handle him."
"The old man is very kind to me; he is letting me choose," Chi Tianai quickly said.
"That's good," Tian Jiuyou finally nodded slightly, bringing up a previous question to Chi Tianai: "After all this talk, who exactly does Old Thief Tianshu wish to betroth you to?"
"Let's not talk about him. I've made up my mind not to accept this marriage. I don't like competing with another woman for a man," Chi Tianai had actually made her decision already; she just needed someone else to help her firm it up.
"That's the spirit. Our Ai is so exceptional, there are plenty of good men lining up. There's no need for Old Thief Tianshu to meddle," Tian Jiuyou said.
"Master You, why don't you take me traveling? It would save me from dealing with people sent by the Heavenly Emperor to discuss the marriage," Chi Tianai suggested.
"Sure, where do you want to go?" Tian Jiuyou agreed immediately, showing no reluctance to Chi Tianai's request.
"I don't know, Master You. You've traveled all across the cosmos, seen many places, and have a lot of experience. Do you have any interesting places to recommend?" Chi Tianai inquired.
Upon hearing this, Tian Jiuyou felt somewhat elated and thought for a moment, his eyes suddenly brightening. "There is indeed an interesting place, and there's also an interesting person there you might find intriguing."
"Where? Who is it?" Chi Tianai was very curious.
"You'll know when we get there," Tian Jiuyou said, cutting off the communication, his physical form already passing through space, arriving in front of Chi Tianai.
"Master You, wait a moment, let me leave a note for them so they won't worry," Chi Tianai spoke, grabbing paper and a pen. After writing the note and placing it on the desk secured by a teacup, she left with Tian Jiuyou.
The space law used by Tian Jiuyou was incredibly convenient, essentially a travel essential. In the blink of an eye, he had taken Chi Tianai away from the Tianyan Lake Star System.
When the Chi family found the note left by Chi Tianai, it was already evening, but they weren't very panicked. Even though Chi Tianai did not specify whom she had left with, the Chi family was well aware, although they didn't speak openly about it.
Chi Tianai's note made it clear that she had no intention of accepting the marriage arranged by Emperor Tianshu. Lin Shen, despite not lacking in talent, wasn't her ideal choice. She also did not wish to compete with another woman for a man.
Lin Shen sat among the Ice Lotus, his body submerged by white mist, sensing the Ice Law radiated by the Ice Lotus. Every day, for a certain period, the Ice Lotus exhaled icy breaths, the best opportunity to sense its Law.
The icy breaths contained the Ice Law, which, though not the real Stasis Law, is the most crucial branch of the Stasis Law as an extension. If one could master the Ice Law to perfection, they could command Absolute Zero, one of the most powerful capacities of the Stasis Law.
Achieving Absolute Zero could further deepen one's understanding of the Stasis Law, as stated in the book left by Tear Stain. However, Lin Shen sitting daily among the icy breaths for two hours through shivering cold failed to sense any Law essences, experiencing nothing but cold.
"It seems my comprehension is lacking. To understand the Law, I might have to rely on the Immortal Egg," Lin Shen felt discouraged. He could not sense the Law force of the Ice Lotus, let alone find a flaw.
Lin Shen also considered another possibility: perhaps his base mutation rate wasn't high enough to sense the Law's power. But in such a forsaken place, apart from the sap of the Ice Lotus, there were no other means to increase his base mutation rate.
With a limited amount of Mutated Nirvana Liquid brought with him and having consumed it within two days, he felt slightly uneasy about drinking the sap.
A few days later, after several more attempts, Lin Shen discovered that whenever he left Snow Valley, the Ice Lotus would emit a freezing ray, instantly encasing him in ice, forcing him back into the Valley.
